How to Replace the Flasher Relay on a 1993 Volvo 850

Replacing the flasher relay on your Volvo 850 can be done very quickly and requires no tools. The flasher relay routes the power from the turn signal switch to the turn signals, converting the flow of electricity from a solid stream of power to an alternating stream, which causes the lights to flash on and off. If the relay fails, you can replace it with a new one, available from any auto parts store or through your Volvo dealer.

Instructions

1

Open the hood of your Volvo and locate the fuse box on the drivers side of the engine compartment up against the firewall. Open the plastic lid by releasing the locking tab on the drivers side of the box then swing the lid towards the passengers side.

2

Locate the flasher relay on the drivers end of the box, grasp it by the sides and pull it straight out. Discard the old flasher and install a new one by pushing it straight into the fuse box where the old one came out.

3

Close the lid, snapping the locking tab in place. Close the hood of the car and test the repair by turning the ignition on and activating the turn signals, one side at a time.
